I'd imagine it's taken this long as they've realised no-one wants to come and replace him with the current setup! Honestly I'd be happy with Pete Wilde back at the helm, he understood us and did wonders with limited resources, but with Mo running the show I don't think there is any kind of salary that would tempt him! Pete Wild turned the job down and applied for the job at Bury instead! Told me he thought it would get much worse under current ownership… this was about 2-years ago… how right he was!

Didn't they say he left because he wanted a break from football? Nothing could have been further from the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjk2008 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Arguably the worst manager we’ve had for twenty years, despite the shite he’s had to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of true, I think that even though it's the correct decision for Curle to leave there's certainly no guarantee that a change of manager will make a difference with the current regime. The position has been devalued so much by the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the absolute horror show that our club has become, I still care about the football. And there are plenty more who do as well - you’ve only got to see how many urge the team to adopt a 4-4-2 formation. Then there’s the numbers who criticise the team, the tactics, the team manager, the individuals. You cannot ‘support the team not the regime’ and not care about the football surely?

Then there’s the numbers who criticise the team, the tactics, the team manager, the individuals. You cannot ‘support the team not the regime’ and not care about the football surely? Agreed. There will always be a number who will follow the football team- No matter what. There will always be a number who can’t stand the owners, but still want their fix. However both these (hard core if you like) groups are dwindling IMO. Then we get to the very sizeable chunk who already drifted away and absolutely won’t go until something happens with the owners, or perhaps have lost interest in football altogether. The truth is, that home games struggle to attract 3000 fans. Decisions at the club are met not with outrage and intrigue anymore but with apathy and humour. Match day threads attract nowhere near the level posts they once did. I think most owners will get away with almost anything if results are good, but their running of it has sucked the football side so much that they have made it almost an irrelevance. For instance- How many professional clubs have one striker (biscuit legs) at their club??? The football will never improve under these owners, their track record demonstrates that, and the sooner we get the club back to have some hope on the pitch again- the better.
